It’s winter, beer is good, and we all like warm hugs. Now, we can get in on the winter theme while we drink, by becoming an adorable drunk snowman.

Russian beer, Ochakovskiy, along with agency DDVB, has come up with creative packaging for their Limited Edition Winter Ale. When brought up to your face to drink, you’ll appear to have a snowman carrot nose.

Hold the can up long enough, and surely someone will give you a warm hug.

When time is an issue, and the choice needs to be made of either ‘drink beer,’ or ‘shower,’ the easy answer is Shower Beer.

The force is strong in this cup. These beverage packaging concepts, by Peru-based art director Christian Rivera, shows LEGO versions of Jedis and Siths holding lightsabers.

What makes these seemingly ordinary soft drinks strong, is that the straws become an extension of the character’s weapons. Hopefully, we see these concepts in some capacity soon — so we can suck up some force.

As highly-advanced as aliens appear to be, they always seem to abduct either the dumbest humans, or cows. Regardless, Kyrgyzstan-based design agency, Imedia Creative Bureau, thought that depicting a cow abduction via a milk bottle would work… It did.

A packaging concept for Molocow, the glass bottle is shaped like a tractor beam, with the cow-abductee on its way up, and the UFO as the screw-cap. Any actual missing cows can be found on Molocow’s cartons… we can only assume.
